Judge Dredd: Rebirth?!?

Readers in ye olde England are concerned that the American mania for rebooting/relaunching/renumbering might result in an All-New, All-Different 2000 AD #1:

 No worries, Tharg reassures us:

Geez, being proud of your large issue numbers...who woulda thought? That's totally zarjaz.

And no, Dan Jurgens and others, Action Comics will not be the first comic to reach issue #1000. By the time you hit that number, 2000 AD will already have been past 2000 issues--for several years!!

From this week's 2000 AD #1976...yes, 2000 AD has more issues than Action Comics and Detective Comics COMBINED.
